Humour: spamming the API
I'm revamping the tags system in Jojo CMS[1] this weekend, as we need
a user interface that can scale well as more and more tags are added
to sites (potentially thousands of tags).
A simple list of all tags no longer works in this instance, so I'm
basing the system around a search, with related tags being returned
via AJAX to give the user an idea of what is already in the system.

Buy Propecia - How blog spam brings you traffic
I was having a look at my site stats from yesterday, and came across a
result I wasn't expecting.
Apparently someone found me for "BUY PROPECIA"???

push me long enough :)

Ferrit SEO their site properly - sort of?
I have been in the process of writing a SEO article all about
www.ferrit.co.nz[1] - a multi million dollar website with more SEO and

The Google Sandbox is real!
We already know that the GOOGLE SANDBOX exists - Google has confirmed
that it does exist. While looking through some ranking graphs the
other day, I found some graphs which I think explain THE SANDBOX
CONCEPT very well.
I forget where Google confirmed this, but probably via Matt Cutts.
